Hi all,
I just wanted to thank all the people who have writen tutorials and mock exams for the SCJP exam. I am going to be writing the exam next week, and I am really anxious to write it. Just a quick question, how hard is JQ+ compared to the actual exam. I guess this will differ from person to person. any advice would be helpful.
Thanks
Regards
Faisal

Faisal,
I found JQ+ comparable to the real exam. The producers say the Tough category group of questions is on par with SCJP2 exam. Personally I did about the same on my first try. I noticed many who passed found their score was either the same or higher than what they averaged on JQ+. Then again some SCJP exams are harder than others too. If you scroll down, there are oodles of comparative discussions on this page. The 3 Marcus Green Mock Exams are excellent as well. Wish you well on your write. I plan to write again this week so off I go, study study study

Percy,
Thanks for your feedback. It is helpful to talk to people who are writing or have written the exam. I really need to get this over with considering that I have to work as well. It can be time consuming, and there is alot to remember. It seems that once you write several exams they all seems to mirror each other in certain ways. I have printed Marcus greens exam, and I have to write the 2nd and 3rd one. so far so good. The last 4 Mocks I am getting between 65~75%.
Thanks again
